Newspaper subscriptions.

Some time since a newspaper pub
Usher in Illinois brought suit against
forty-three men who would not pay
their subscriptions, and obtained
judgment in each for the full amount
ofthe claim. Twenty-eight of the de-
PENDANTS made affidavit that they own
ed no more property than the law al
lowed tnem, thus preventing attach
ments. Then they under the Supreme
Court decision, were arrested for pet
ty larceny and put under bonds of $500
each. All but six gave bond, but the
six went to Jail. The postal law makes
it larceny to take a newspaper and re.
fuse to pay for it. Don't forget this.
